Same for me, we 'travel' our paintings during one year to communicate to the various countries and exhibitions, but it is the same for masters also...
But I agree with Brian, the painters of 230 mm flats are not many in Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden. I don't know about Italy or Spain.  During the past year 50% of my paintings are 30mm, but many painters prefer today the larger sizes, proably more visible and convenient to paint. 
Also in competition, one 30mm flat has little chance of being detected, unless a mounted olifant.... 
I have four English knights Under preparation and many queuing ..  Fortunately, we have Eric to keep us awake!!

Hmmmm... four of the twelve photos are fantasy/sci-fi subjects and only three appear to be 30mm. Interesting ...very interesting. Has this been a trend at the shows?

We have returned!!  how time flies when you are enjoying yourselves.

I have to say, this is one of the best shows you could possibly attend.

I would like to Thank Rob and the rest of his crew for the very warm welcome they gave us and for the exceptional organisational skills they have obviously put into this show.  Hard work, but very much appreciated from this quarter :)

Below are photo's of our stand with 2D. Again it was a very very good display and drew a lot of attention.

More photos along with winners in the competition will be added soon. ;)

Careful Brian; someone may want you to paint their house.

With a W&N #0 brush...


Have a great time.
